Instrumental Variables (IV) is a statistical technique used to estimate causal effects when there is a problem of endogeneity, meaning a variable that affects both the independent and dependent variables. In other words, IV is a method that allows us to identify and correct for biases in regression analysis caused by unobserved factors that influence both the explanatory and response variables.
